I am science teacher in school. I believe in doing one to one talk with my students to enlighten them with my positive experiences so that they could face their complicated future life.
Other day one student said “in our hindu epics it is recommended one should eat food in clean floor with folded legs and one should prefer to eat with fingers of hands. Use of dinning table with required cutlery for eating is not mentioned in epics”
I said “according to my experience “I also prefer to eat dal ,vegetables chapati with clean fingers of my hand. I don’t eat rice with spoon. Fortunately I have big Kitchen where I have placed a small stool which I use for keeping my eatables in front of that small stool I eat my food by sitting with folded hands. I find kitchen the best place to use, as kitchen is cleanest place of my house. No body is allowed to come in kitchen with shoes on. Eating with hands give me lot of satisfaction. “
Other student from China said”madam we use chop sticks to eat rice with meat. “I said I have tried eating rice with chop sticks, I find it is comfortable to use same but it doesn’t give me satisfaction. “
Moral of story- eating India food dal, chapati, rice and vegetables with fingers of hand give lot of satisfaction compare to using cutlery for eating same.
